What it is

Zoom states it will notify the account owner of new subprocessors to the extent required under the applicable contractual agreement, and publishes updates to this page; an email subscription option is also available.

This analysis describes what Zoom's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The notification obligation is conditioned on what is 'required under contractual agreement' rather than being a categorical commitment to notify all customers of all changes; organizations that have not contracted for explicit subprocessor notification rights may not receive direct notice of additions and must rely on monitoring this public page or the subscription service.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

This provision establishes that new subprocessor notifications are directed to the account owner and are conditioned on contractual requirements rather than provided universally. Organizations that have subscribed to updates or hold DPA terms requiring notification will receive direct notice; others should monitor the public subprocessor page.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
